"Trust is gone" --- by Dennis Prager (Cartoon update)
Investor Village "I have been broadcasting for 31 years and writing for longer than that. I do not recall ever saying on radio or in print that a president is doing lasting damage to our country.
....
Douglas Schoen was a pollster for President Bill Clinton and Pat Caddell was a pollster for President Jimmy Carter.
....
"But I have never written or broadcast that our country was being seriously damaged by a president. So it is with great sadness that I write that President Barack Obama has done and continues to do major damage to America. The only question is whether this can ever be undone.
This is equally true domestically and internationally.
Domestically, his policies have had a grave impact on the American economy.
....
"Among presidents in modern American history, he has also been a uniquely divisive force. It began with his forcing Obamacare through Congress — the only major legislation in American history to be passed with no votes from the opposition party."
"He has also divided the country by economic class, using classic Marxist language against “the rich” and “corporate profits.' ”
....
"One wonders if there is a remaining ally nation that trusts him. And worse, no American enemy fears him. If you are a free movement (the democratic Iranian and Syrian oppositions) or a free country (Israel), you have little or no reason to believe that you have a steadfast ally in the United States."
Emphasis in the original.

The dip in the president’s honesty rating is not a blip, but part of long-term decline in confidence in government and institutions that represents and unraveling of a system where nobody is trusted at all."Hat tip to fellow Marine Robert Hope, Sacramento, CA. Thanks, Bob.

Cracker Barrel Backtrack: Duck Back On Menu
Truth Revolt
"We made a mistake, we listened to you, and we apologize."

"Nationwide country restaurant Cracker Barrel has reversed its decision of Friday to stop selling some Duck Dynasty merchandise with Papa Phil's face prominently displayed. Thanks to fierce customer backlash and a strong anti-Cracker Barrel Twitter campaign, the restaurant tweeted on Sunday that Duck Dynasty products are back on the shelves."
Trouble is that Duck Dynasty money goes to A+E; Duck Commander income goes to the Robertsons. But A+E should get the message.

Alan Caruba: Obama Must Be Forced to Resign
Warning Signs

... "Not since the days of the Great Depression in the 1930s have Americans endured an economy that has failed to overcome slow growth despite Obama’s full first term in office and another year in his second term.
"Ignoring the central role of a free market prolongs bad economic conditions and high taxation to maintain an ever-expanding central government led to big problems for European nations and promises the same—or worse—for the U.S." ...
Remember Rodney King? Of the 50,000,000 or so voters who cast votes for Barack Obama, how many of them would you guess have shown they are capable of committing acts of violence, or at least defecating on American flags?
